Jazz & Contemporary Groups About

Featuring the versatility of multi-talented DJ C-Zone on tenor and soprano saxophones, some live music is a funky & fun option to spice up your cocktail or reception. We also specialize in wedding ceremonies and offer one custom song arrangement at your request. We can provide a soloist, duo, trio, quartet, or quintet with just about any combination of saxophone, trumpet, piano, guitar, bass, drums, and vocals. The video and audio examples below are just a small indication of our range of styles and possible combos including jazz, classics, r&b, pop, soul, blues and contemporary tunes.

“Outstanding from first inquiry, to the end of the wedding! We had the jazz trio during cocktail hour into dinner. They took a short break while Charles made the introductions. The jazz trio simply put, was excellent. Would not recommend doing anything differently. I love jazz and listening to them out on the deck was almost surreal it was so beautiful.” Anne Marie, June 2016, The Barn at Gibbet Hill

Soloists

Solo Guitar

Acoustic guitar creates a romantic atmosphere for wedding ceremonies and is also upbeat for cocktail hour. We can accommodate just about any music genre including classical (Mozart, Bach, Beethoven), to timeless classics (Stevie Wonder, The Beatles, Van Morrison, James Taylor, Bob Marley), to contemporary artists (Jack Johnson, Bruno Mars, Ray LaMontagne).

Solo Piano

Live piano adds and elegant touch to your wedding or special event. If there is a tuned, in-house piano available, that is a huge bonus and will sound amazing. If no piano is on-site, then we will bring a professional keyboard and amp. We are happy to accommodate just about any genre from classical composers like Pachelbel, Vivaldi and Back to timeless classics like Elton John and Billy Joel, to contemporary artists like Train, U2 and Alicia Keys.

Duos

Sax & Piano

This is a very popular duo and this sultry ballad sounds beautiful as guests arrive for your ceremony, or as a romantic song during cocktail hour. Add upright bass to round out the sound, or add drums or percussion to make it more funky & upbeat.

Trios

This trio is for the client looking for a funky and really upbeat atmosphere. We hope you like our jazzy covers of reggae, R&B, Blues, Rock and Pop. Between the energy of the drums, the soulful melody of the sax and the funky rhythmic guitar, this is one of our most popular bookings. Dig it!!!
